 * network_gist.c
 *    GiST support for network types.
 *
 * The key thing to understand about this code is the definition of the
 * "union" of a set of INET/CIDR values.  It works like this:
 * 1. If the values are not all of the same IP address family, the "union"
 * is a dummy value with family number zero, minbits zero, commonbits zero,
 * address all zeroes.  Otherwise:
 * 2. The union has the common IP address family number.
 * 3. The union's minbits value is the smallest netmask length ("ip_bits")
 * of all the input values.
 * 4. Let C be the number of leading address bits that are in common among
 * all the input values (C ranges from 0 to ip_maxbits for the family).
 * 5. The union's commonbits value is C.
 * 6. The union's address value is the same as the common prefix for its
 * first C bits, and is zeroes to the right of that.  The physical width
 * of the address value is ip_maxbits for the address family.
 *
 * In a leaf index entry (representing a single key), commonbits is equal to
 * ip_maxbits for the address family, minbits is the same as the represented
 * value's ip_bits, and the address is equal to the represented address.
 * Although it may appear that we're wasting a byte by storing the union
 * format and not just the represented INET/CIDR value in leaf keys, the
 * extra byte is actually "free" because of alignment considerations.
 *
 * Note that this design tracks minbits and commonbits independently; in any
 * given union value, either might be smaller than the other.  This does not
 * help us much when descending the tree, because of the way inet comparison
 * is defined: at non-leaf nodes we can't compare more than minbits bits
 * even if we know them.  However, it greatly improves the quality of split
 * decisions.  Preliminary testing suggests that searches are as much as
 * twice as fast as for a simpler design in which a single field doubles as
 * the common prefix length and the minimum ip_bits value.
